The deep curve of the shoulders, the lack of protrusion above the base of the rowel holder, the short rowel holder and the small diameter rowel are characteristics that point to dating some of this specimens in the 13th century. Kirpichnikov puts these spurs in type V (first half of the 13th-14th century) after a spur depicted on an English tombstone dating to the beginning of the 14th century.
